VRmonster 1 Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 will fail the mot deffo... they stick out from the arch a little too much, he he. very nice. when they getting polished? Link to post Share on other sites
DundeeDub 0 Posted March 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 i'll stick the standard on for the mot anyway as its due in the winter and these are only for the summer.might run them as they are this summer then next winter get them polished up, if i do it now they will look out of place as the cars needing work done to get up to the standard of the polished alloys.really can't wait to get them polished so it maybe sooner, same with the bodywork....lol Link to post Share on other sites

mark@vagworx 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 I've got 205 Toyos on an 8" rim and they are slightly stretched, but not on a massive scale. All depends on the tyre really. Link to post Share on other sites
DundeeDub 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 yep, i feel that falkens give the impression of a bigger stretch that they actually are Link to post Share on other sites
